Jon Erik Engeset resigns as CEO of SafeRoad
Mar 07, 2013
SafeRoad has over the last years made several add-on
acquisitions abroad, which have led to a subsequent build-up of
head office functions in Oslo. Following this, Jon Erik Engeset,
the President and CEO of SafeRoad, has had to commute between Ørsta
and Oslo on a weekly basis. For private reasons, he has now decided
to seek new opportunities closer to his home.
Engeset was appointed CEO of Ørsta Group in 2002, which was
merged with Euroskilt Group and renamed SafeRoad in 2007. Under his
management, the group has experienced strong growth and
organizational development, and SafeRoad is today the leading
company in Europe within its field.
Jon Erik Engeset will leave SafeRoad with effect from July
1st 2013. A process to recruit his successor has been
initiated.
"On behalf of the Board I thank Jon Erik for his efforts and
contributions over the last 11 years and wish him all the best for
the future", says Johan Ek, Chairman of the Board, SafeRoad
Group
